General Health & Safety guidance for Bird Free
• KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
• Causes skin and eye irritation. Do not get in eyes or on clothing. Avoid contact with skin. Wear gloves. Wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
• To reduce hazards to legally protected bird species, follow all instructions in the Directions For Use. DO NOT CONTAMINATE ponds, waterways or ditches with product, empty container or dishes.
• To reduce potential exposure to bird-related diseases, operatives should wear waterproof gloves and a mask for dust protection when cleaning areas to be treated. Prepare surfaces to be treated by removing bird nests, dirt, droppings and other debris. Using biocide or water mixed with a wetting agent or detergent, wet surfaces where droppings are present to limit generation of airborne dust during cleaning. Allow cleaned surfaces to dry fully prior to treatment because silicone adhesive will not adhere well to wet surfaces.
